The Dalton Gang with Terry Dean and Dave Moore – May 18

The Dalton Gang and Dave Moore put on a fine show being joined by Terry Dean for a full set.

The last time this line-up performed together at the Guild was in September 2017 and three days later Terry ended up in hospital for a triple bypass. So Leo came prepared this time and pulled out a set of battery jumper cables – just in case.

But they were not needed as Terry and the band romped through an hour of great country music.
